================
Comment at: libcxx/include/filesystem:1079
     using _CVT = _PathCVT<_SourceChar<_Source> >;
     if (__source_is_absolute(_Traits::__first_or_null(__src)))
       __pn_.clear();
----------------
If we end up keeping those functions separate in the Posix and non-Posix cases, we could get rid of `static bool __source_is_absolute(_ECharT)` above by instead doing:

```
bool __source_is_absolute = __is_separator(_Traits::__first_or_null(__src));
if (__source_is_absolute)
  // ...
```

I feel like having a separate function for `__source_is_absolute()` isn't worth the trouble anymore if we need to add `#ifdefs` around it & al.


================
Comment at: libcxx/include/filesystem:1033
+    __pn_ += __p.__pn_.substr(__p_root_name_size);
+    return *this;
+  }

Would this implementation work on Posix as well? Looking at the Posix implementation, it doesn't appear to be much simpler. Is it faster somehow?

If that's a viable alternative (i.e. it's correct and similarly fast), I would rather simply replace the implementation by yours and have it work on both Posix and Windows.
